Detective:   According to the victim’s wife, your sons lately got involved in fights over the future of your family business. What do you have to say about that?

Father:   Yes, they often got involved in fights because they had a lot of disagreements about the future of our family business. I always wanted my own son to control the business. He is intelligent, highly qualified and much smarter than William. I believe he had greater capability to handle the business, but my wife gave the company to my elder son and there was nothing that I could do about it.

Detective:   Who do you think committed this gruesome deed?

Father:   I am sure his wife committed this crime. She belongs from a wealthy business family and we got them married because we wanted to build a partnership deal with her father’s company. Our relations were good and we wanted to strengthen our bond with them. But six years back, due to growing differences between the board members of the two companies, we were forced to split up and now the two companies are rivals. Misty’s behaviour changed a lot since then. She even tried to poison her own husband twice but failed.

Detective:   How long have you been working for him?

P.A :   I have been working for Mr. Anderson for the past five years. Mr. Anderson was a kind man and he loved me a lot. My son has been suffering from an unusual disease and Mr. Anderson used to help me with my son’s treatment. His death feels like a great personal loss to me.

Detective:   Was everything going fine with the business?

P.A :   We always had trouble. Mr. William Anderson’s step father used to interfere in the business dealings and he never got along well with Mr. William. He often tried to instigate his own son against his step-son. He wanted his own son to become the owner of the company.

Detective:   Everyone seems to target you; do you have anything to say about it?

Younger brother:   What rubbish! I loved my brother very much. Yes, I agree we got involved in fights lately but we always resolved them in a peaceful manner. I always helped him in the business and my brother used to consult me about various matters. We had very good terms. How can I kill my brother?

Detective:   According to you, who might have killed your brother?

Younger brother:   It’s definitely his son. My nephew is a drug addict and his demands for money kept on increasing every day. He never got along well with anyone in the family. He always had disagreements with his father and they often use had arguments and fights when my brother denied to pay him any extra money for his extravagant life-style. My nephew is very greedy and he might have a possible motive to kill my brother. He even used to have heated arguments with Mr. Arnold Burns as he caught my nephew stealing money from my brother’s cupboard several times.

Detective:   How are coping up in this difficult time?

Son:   It’s a really difficult for me. I loved and respected him a lot. Yes, we had our own share of fights and disagreements. But now I feel I have let him down. I failed to lived up to his expectations, I failed as a son. I never made him feel proud.

Detective:   I am really sorry for your loss. So, tell me Wilmort, did you notice anything suspicious about anyone lately in the house?

Son:   That guy, my Dad’s PA, he is the culprit. He used to get involved in our family matters. He even started to show more concern about my Dad’s medical issues. He used to take him to the doctor for monthly check-ups and also took care of his medicines which I felt was a little unusual. My Dad was a kind man and he used to give Arnold Burns a lot of money for his son’s treatment. But one day I heard my dad shouting on him and I faintly remember him telling Burns that he won’t give him any extra penny for his son’s treatment. I even saw an email oh Burns’ laptop from our rival company which made me suspicious. On questing him, he told me they were making a deal to partner on a project together. That man is very suspicious and he has amazing technical skills. I never liked him getting involved in our family matters.
